On February 3rd, 1916 the Centre Block of Canada’s Parliament Buildings burnt to the ground, the result of a carelessly discarded cigar in a waste basket in one of the reading rooms.

Mostly Wordless … Sunday? – August 9, 2015
I’ve given up on “Mostly Wordless Wednesday”. It wasn’t working for me. I don’t want to wait to post my photographs mid-week, especially since they are often posted to other sites, such as Flickr, before then. From now on, “Mostly Wordless…” will happen whenever I have new photos to share.
